  While the FedNow system itself does not utilize any specific cryptocurrencies, it is worth mentioning that there are other digital currency platforms, such as BYDFi, that offer real-time settlement and payment solutions using cryptocurrencies. However, it's important to note that the FedNow system is separate from these platforms and operates independently.
